إدريس Idris Enoch
Idris lived during a period of drought inflicted by God to punish the people of the world who had forgotten God. Idris prayed for salvation and an end to
the suffering, and so the world received rain.
Muslims believe Hud, for whom the 11 th chapter of the Qur'an is named, was one of the few people to survive a great storm inflicted by God,
similar to the Deluge fever five generations earlier, to punish the people of the `Ad who had forgotten about God.
According to the Quran God ordered Saleh to leave behind his people, the tribe of
Thamud, after they disbelieved and disobeyed God's order to care for a special camel and instead killed it. In Saleh's and his followers'
(believers) absence, God punished the people with an utter cry from the skies that killed his people instantly.
Abraham is credited with rebuilding the Kaaba in Mecca the House of God. His family, including his son Ishmael, is also credited with helping create the civilization
around Mecca that would later give birth to the final prophet, Muhammad. Ibrahim is also noted for almost sacrificing his son Ismail (Ishmael)
for God in an event now commemorated annually by Eid ul-Adha.
Lot is most notable for attempting to preach against homosexuality in Sodom and Gomorra in addition to preaching for his people to believe in the
Oneness of God, only to be mocked and ignored by the people who lived there.
Ismail, first-born son of Ibrahim, is a notable prophet for his near-sacrifice in adulthood.
As a child he and his mother Hagar's search for water in the region around Mecca led God to reveal the Zamzam well, which still flows to this day.
إسحاق Ishaq Isaac
According to Islamic tradition, Isaac, second-born son of Ibrahim, became a prophet
in Canaan. He, along with his brother Ismail, carried on the legacy of Ibrahim as prophets of Islam.
Yakub, according to the Qur'an was "of the company of the Elect and the
Good" and he continued the legacy of both his father, Isaac, and his grandfather, Abraham. Like his ancestors, he was committed to worshipping God
exclusively
Yusuf, son of (Yakub) and great-grandson of Ibrahim, became a prominent advisor to the king of Egypt since the king was believed to have seen a dream,
which was interpreted by Yusuf that predicted the economic state of Egypt. He spent a large part of his life away from his eleven brothers, who were jealous of Yusuf because their father favored
him. They took him one day, telling their father that they where going to play and have fun, but they planned to kill him. Instead, they threw him down a well and told their father Yaqub that he was eaten by a wolf. According to Islam Yusuf was gifted with half of the beauty granted to mankind.
أيوب
Ayyub Job
According to Islamic tradition, Ayyub was rewarded by a fountain of youth,
which removed all illnesses except death, for his service to God in his hometown outside Al Majdal. Ayyub is believed to have suffered an illness
for 18 years as test of patience by God.
شعيب Shuaib Jethro
Jethro was a direct descendant of Abraham.
According to Islam, he was appointed by God to guide the people of Midyan and Aykah, who lived near Mount Sinai.
When the people of the region failed to listen to his warnings, God destroyed the disbeliever's villages.
موسى Musa Moses
Moses, referred to in the Qur'an more than any other prophet, is significant for revealing the Tawrat (Torah)
to the Israelites. The Qur'an says Musa realized his connection with God after receiving commands from him during a stop at Mount Sinai.
He later went on to free the enslaved Hebrews after the Egyptian pharaoh denied God's power. Musa subsequently led the freed Hebrews for forty years through the desert after they refused to obey God's command and enter the Holy Lands, saying to Moses (as mentioned in Qur'an[Qur'an5:24], "O Moses! We will never enter (the land) while they are in it. So go thou and thy Lord and fight! We will sit here."During this long journey, on another trip to Mount Sinai Musa received the Tawrat and the Ten Commandments.At the end of his life, according to Islamic tradition, Musa chose to die to be closer to God instead of taking an offer that would haveextended his life. proceed to next page
